Yep he stamped his style straight away as did JDT albeit after a few weeks of pre season. Now though it just looks like chuck and chance but to get the best out of this squad we can only really play one way.....and it isn't his way obviously.

Today was always going to be a tough one but this guy really hasn't got the first clue. For context a lot said the same about Eustace but he didn't walk into a team in 5th place.

Waggot was an upgrade on Shaw that's for sure and don't forget a former programme printer became his assistant director. Then we had a former SKY tv reporter come in to communicate with fans who was then gagged but became a football director. Something tells me they're returning to type again and if there is a post Waggot era to come it could get even more messy.

The people in that corner stand all the time anyway it's a pointless exercise. I had a seat there for a decade and if i had a quid for every time my arse touched the seat i might be able to buy a pint.

Waggots car is on auto pilot, sets the same course every summer then sits in the back with his feet up, destination nowhere, rewards = very handsome indeed.

If you were a finance person sat in an office in London or India with zero interest or connection other than its just landed on your desk this is exactly how you'd go about re-setting prices. They've just looked at the dearest seats and said well people who go there can afford more so hike it, next is the most popular area that always sells out first, right make those premiums seats as well. A token gesture to offset this.... well make it cheaper in the riverside so some can move or lump it. We know the main issue is the people at the top don't listen because they don't care, it's probably not even Waggots doing.

We normally finish seasons quite strongly, once the pressure is off to do anything. Think we'll have to lose a few more first just to make it dead before a winning run to 8th place....

I've never bought into Waggots theory that they can't slash prices because they wouldn't sell enough to cover it, complete cop out nonsense. The figures we've seen of only 4k full adult tickets sold expose this there is no way we wouldn't double that paltry figure if they halved that price last season . However it might impact the full price match by match buyers and he doesn't want that it's the key to his thinking imo. Quite happy to have c4k match by match buyers over a season he's hitting his money income targets through them and away fans. We are back to his classic squeeze what you have agenda as was the way under TM that saw the ST base mostly decimate season on season before the desperate 'oh we better knock 20 quid off' token effort.

Not sure on the total allocation but looks like there's not many left at all so another good Saturday afternoon long trek following on the cards. Time for the wallflowers to wake up from minute 1 and this head coach to show some grit not look like hes just been dropped into the dugout to watch the match.
